When life seems to remind you of every mistake you’ve made, every door that you missed, every red flag that you did not heed, and every misstep you made in your journey, it’s easy to get caught up in that and to sit inside of remorse and regret.
When we are walking throughout our day, our lives, looking back at every mistake we’ve made and praying that we could do something different, think something different, speak something different, we are unintentionally holding on to something that God has already released.
When we are walking with God, we are walking in liberty, repenting, turning back and going to the Father, letting go of every old season and everything that hurt you, everyone that undermined you, and every situation that you couldn’t control. Releasing these things is important.
But it’s hard to let go.
It’s hard to be free of things that you know in your heart have had an effect on where you are in your life, how you walk day to day, how you feel about yourself. Life is full of these strings, full of these chains that link us to days gone by, seasons that have passed, and often it’s so hard to let go that we find ourselves repeating the season.
Even in new locations, even with new people, we’re often repeating cycles. And it’s hard. This is why God tells us that there’s not one thing in the earth that is stronger than Him, that there is not one thing that we have encountered that the Lord has not given us a way of escape.
In 1 Corinthians 10: 13 in the King James Version, it states:
13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. - 1 Corinthians 10: 13 KJV
To carry it and move forward, to release as you’re growing through it, to gain the lessons and leave the broken pieces behind. There are seasons where you hold on to the pieces, and you create a mosaic. And there are seasons when God says to let those things go, because you can’t take them where you’re going.
When you are walking with the Lord, wherever the Spirit is, there is liberty, there is freedom. And if the Son has set you free, then you are free indeed. Why hold on to seasons? Why hold on to old things, old barriers? Why hold on to the weight that you wish you could change?
You can’t go back there.
The Bible tells us in Psalm 46:1 that the Lord is a very present help in trouble. He is our great God in this moment. He is Alpha and Omega in this moment. What has happened is done. It cannot be undone. It cannot be changed. Whatever happened to you cannot be “unhappened.”
But what can happen in this moment is that you can be healed, you can release it, and you can hold fast to the liberty that you find in King Jesus. You can hold fast to the truth of who you are in this moment. Nothing can take you back into something that God has delivered you from. There’s not one temptation, there’s not one tempting situation, there’s nothing that can pull you back when the Lord has set you free.
When He has made you free from sin, from shame, from condemnation, when he’s made you free from the hurt that was done against you, when he’s made you free from unforgiveness, when He’s made you free from holding grudges and holding on to pain, when He has brought liberty upon you, nothing can undo it. When the Lord has set you free from chains, from habits, from people-pleasing, no one can pull you back into old behaviors, old mindsets, and old thinking.
For the Lord our God is with you.
He is more than able to bring about transformation. He’s more than able to show you the power of divine release. But it is only when we say yes. It is only when we submit. It is only when we learn to let go of every old thing that we can begin to see the truth of the Word of the Lord.
We can begin to see the freedom and we can begin to hold fast to that liberty, hold on to that faith and trust that God is more than able. It comes with intention. It comes with letting go. It comes with closing the old door over and over again, as many times as it takes to close it again, to close it again, and to close it again. To trust that the Lord is with you, that He is helping you to overcome every old chain, every shackle, every stronghold. It must let go. It cannot remain. For whom the Son sets free is free indeed.
Closing Devotional Prayer
My prayer for you:
Father, in the name of Jesus. Thank you. Thank you, Lord God, for the mighty woman of God. Thank you, God, that this brand new morning is wide open. God, let every chain come down, loose every shackle.
O God, I thank you that the mighty woman of God is stepping into divine liberty. Lord, I thank you for the truth of your Word. I thank you that every word that you’ve spoken over her life will come to pass. For you are the sovereign God, the Holy One, the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. And there is nobody like you. There is no one above you.
Thank you, O God. There’s not one temptation that has come upon her, O God, that you have not given her a way to escape. So, Lord, I thank you for the escape. I thank you for the liberty. I thank you, God, that many are the afflictions of the righteous, but you, O God, have delivered us from them all.
I thank you for deliverance. I thank you for the healing over the mighty woman of God. I thank you, O God, for the grace and the glory of God that is coming forth over her now. That as she leaves this prayer this morning, that she’s ready to leap, to go, she’s ready to be set free. Like all of the ones in the Bible who, once they had regained their legs, once they had regained their mobility, once they were healed of the affliction, would leap and dance and celebrate you.
They would glorify you immediately. Lord, I thank you that the mighty woman of God would do the same. That she will glorify you this morning, that she is set free. That there is nothing, O God, that can pull her back into an old situation, old fear, old chains. Because now, God, she has her liberty.
I thank you, Lord, and I pray in Jesus’ mighty name. Amen.
